In Deruigins school is a break. The smallest try to teach
"Barbie" to sit on a spagat...From the dressing-room suddenly runs a
girl, which one I know : she is on the advertising of Deruigina Cup 2000. Anya,
the daughter of football coach and brilliant former football player, looks a bit
scary. It seems to be her first interview in her life (LV: the author is wrong,
Anya had lots of interviews before, only she has a shy character) . There is no
pride in her words, which is very popular among the "star" children.

- Mom wanted me to be a ballerina. But she saw how I try to do
gymnastics routine, brought me to Deruigins School. I was very successful.
Parents were very happy and supported me a lot. We live very friendly. Earlier,
father was buying "Barbie" dolls for me. The whole my room was in them
Now I bring souvenirs for them. Me, my mom and my brother were always going on a
stadium to support father's team on important matches. And now we are always
happy, when CSKA wins. But we don't see each other a lot. Sometimes we are
together for about 2 days in summer...But not often, because each of us goes
somewhere. Brother studies in Spain, in tennis academy. I'm very sad that I
fought with him in the childhood.

- Do you feel that you are a daughter of the famous
sportsmen?

- No. We always had all very simple. Parents have friendship
with people, who they knew even before they became "stars". I'm not
used to an attention to me in the streets.

- Which victory you remember the most?

- I think, when in 1998 I brought 5 medals from Spartakiada in
Moscow. I didn't even think about such a success, especially the gold with
ribbon. I was never strong in ribbon. The whole family met me after Moscow. Now
I go to France, on Gran Prix competition. If in countries of former USSR I'm
more named as a daughter of a great football player, but in other countries I'm
only Ukrainian Rhythmic gymnast.

- What excited you the most in other countries?

- I go on competitions from the childhood. And also, I
don't need anything. So I never had a shock. I'm happy to meet my
friends-gymnasts there. And also coaches. Lots of coaches work in other
countries now

- If it isn't a secret, what do gymnasts eat?

- We don't eat in the morning. In the afternoon - a bit of yogurt
, orange. For dinner - a piece of meat and fruit. We can eat everything, but
only a bit. After competitions we let ourselves something tasty.

- Carrer of gymnasts is short. Did you think, who you will be
in te future? Maybe, you will be a model?

- Oh, no! Faster I will be a coach. I will teach children. To go
on the podium, to wear and demonstrate something isn't for me. Well, I like to
visit shops, to buy something new. Sometimes with my mother. But I'm not very
good in mode...
